All System Analysis Articles

On this page, I collect all System Analysis articles that show how I turn complex systems into clear scope, interfaces, and requirements-ready insights. I start with context, system boundaries, stakeholders, and objectives, because these anchors guide every later decision and reduce rework. Then, I move step by step from “how the system fits into its environment” to “what I must specify, validate, and trace,” so you can apply the same logic to any domain. Moreover, I write each article as a practical blueprint: you can reuse the methods, adapt the artifacts, and build a consistent analysis workflow for your own systems—no matter which use case you pick.

Defining the System Boundary of T2

I define the T2 system boundary with a clear, CPRE-style scope cut. I place CLM and RTGS inside T2, because they form the T2 Service core. Then I keep connected systems outside on purpose, even if liquidity and messages flow constantly. This way, I prevent scope creep. Moreover, I write requirements with stable ownership and test scope.

TARGET Services T2 in the TARGET Landscape

When I analyse payment infrastructures, I start with context. I skip screens and message fields at first. Instead, I map where T2 in TARGET Services sits and why its neighbours matter. This matches the CPRE (IREB) mindset. First, I define scope and interfaces. Then, I derive requirements that fit reality. T2 works with CLM, TIPS, T2S, and ECMS. Therefore, I treat interactions as core analysis objects and avoid rework.

T2 Objectives: Why T2 Exists for Monetary Policy, Stability, and Efficiency

When I analyse a payment and market infrastructure system, I start with “why”. I do not start with screens, messages, or data fields. Instead, I clarify business goals and policy aims first. This mindset fits the CPRE approach from IREB. CPRE anchors requirements in goals, stakeholders, and context. Therefore, T2 Objectives2 become my compass for every later requirement decision.

What Is T2 within TARGET Services?

What Is T2 TARGET Services? I describe T2 as the Eurosystem’s core service for settling large-value euro payments in central bank money. It combines Central Liquidity Management and RTGS, and it connects to other TARGET Services via liquidity transfers and harmonised operating schedules. For requirements engineering system analysis, I use T2 to derive scope, actors, timing constraints, and resilience requirements for payment infrastructure.
